#### Number of Hits

The Number of hits box allows you to change the number of hits for a specified feature.

Suppose four hits are listed in the edit box. If you delete a hit, the last hit (#4) in the feature list is removed. If two hits are deleted, the last two hits (#4 and #3) are deleted. PC-DMIS renumbers the remaining hits based on its current numbering assignment.

If you add a hit, PC-DMIS will increase the Hit Targets list by one, displaying an extra hit at the end of the hit list. This hit will not indicate any x, y, z, i, j, k values until the measurement routine is executed. At that time, PC-DMIS will prompt you to take the additional hit. PC-DMIS will ask if the hits are to be equally spaced.

- If you click Yes, PC-DMIS will take the hits in equally spaced intervals. For a cone, sphere, cylinder, or torus feature, PC-DMIS displays a Levels dialog box. You can use this dialog box to specify the number of levels PC-DMIS will use to equally space the hits. The default is two.

- If you click No, PC-DMIS will display the hit values as 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1. You will then need to manually enter the hit values.
